On saturday I found the Pink X-0 #15 for 50 cents and the Blue Variant X-0 trade for $1 in Council Bluffs, Iowa.

Those are great pick-ups anytime but it does seem like you traveled a long ways to get them. I never even have time to go to my LCS that's 8 miles from my office... :?

I got a 8.5 or 9.0 copy of Cerebus #21 for $18.

Not a steal, but I have always wanted that book, but have never owned it, so.... :D

Have you read the VH2 Shadowman books yet? If you haven't, issue #16 till the end of the run is good too.

You read the Solar books? I like them. A different view and story, but interesting.

I also liked the all Master Darque stuff.

And I did like eternal Warriors. It got better as the books went along.


Again...... VERY different from VH1, but good on it's own merit.

Dr. Tomorrow, Bloodshot and the Turok one shots are pretty good too. If you guys haven't read Operation Stormbreaker give that one a try as well.
